 * I'm afraid I have discovered that the article has a very serious problem. A lot of the text has been copied directly from http://stcyprians.itgo.com/ - such a copyright violation is in fact illegal and must be removed as soon as possible. Roger (talk) 12:24, 9 March 2013 (UTC)


 * Would you advise? - I am author of both - so it is not copyright violation, even if it appears so.Blarcrean (talk) 13:01, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Your being the original author does not solve the issue. Are you the owner of the stcyprians.itgo.com site? Copyright by default belongs to the website owner unless it is specified otherwise. I will make enquiries about how to fix the problem and get back to you asap. Roger (talk) 13:27, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes I am the originator and owner of the website.Blarcrean (talk) 13:29, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
 * In that case WP:IOWN is where you'll find the solution. Roger (talk) 18:22, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks for this. I have noted now on the http://stcyprians.itgo.com/ site that I am the author of that material and also that my photo of the cathedral taken in Sept 2005 which appears there and in the Wikipedia article has been made available through wikimedia. On my question below, may I remove the notice concerning citations? Blarcrean (talk) 20:15, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Hi Roger, would you consider the citations for the article in question sufficient now? I have attended to some of the matters of style as well (I think this was about the second wikipedia contribution I made as a novice nearly four years ago). There is also in fact fairly limited overlap between the material here and that which I wrote at http://stcyprians.itgo.com/ All the best Blarcrean (talk) 15:46, 9 March 2013 (UTC)
